h4. {anchor:xip} Support for Exclusive-IP Zones

Sun Cluster software now supports non-global zones of {{ip-type=exclusive}}. This functionality is introduced in patch 126106-17 for SPARC based platforms and 126107-17 for x86 based platforms. To run logical-hostname resources in exclusive-IP zones, you must register version 3 of the {{SUNW.LogicalHostname}} resource type after you apply this patch.
# Determine whether version 3 of the {{SUNW.LogicalHostname}} resource type is already registered.
{{phys-schost# *clresourcetype list{*}{}}}{{{}SUNW.LogicalHostname:3}}
# If {{SUNW.LogicalHostname:3}} is not registered, run the following command.
{{phys-schost# *clresourcetype register SUNW.LogicalHostname{*}}}

For more details, see ["Registering a Resource Type|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2561/babedged?a=view] in _Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide_.

The following information provides guidelines and procedures for using exclusive-IP zones in a Sun Cluster configuration.

[Top|#top]

h5. Guidelines for Exclusive-IP Zones

* *Logical-hostname resource groups* \- In a resource group that contains a {{LogicalHostname}} resource, if the node list contains any non-global zone with the {{ip-type}} property set to {{exclusive}}, then all zones in that node list must have this property set to {{exclusive}}. Note that a global zone always has the {{ip-type}} property set to {{shared}}, and therefore cannot coexist in a node list that contains zones of {{ip-type=exclusive}}. This restriction applies only to versions of the Solaris OS that use the Solaris zones {{ip-type}} property.
* *IPMP groups* \- For all public-network adapters that are used for data-service traffic in the non-global zone, you must manually configure IPMP groups in all {{/etc/hostname._adapter{_}}} files on the zone. This information is not inherited from the global zone. For guidelines and instructions to configure IPMP
groups, follow the procedures in [Part VI, IPMP, in _System Administration Guide: IP Services_|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-4554/ipmptm-1?a=view].
* *Private-hostname dependency* \- Exclusive-IP zones cannot depend on cluster private hostnames and addresses.
* *Shared-address resources* \- Shared-address resources cannot use exclusive-IP zones.

[Top|#top]

h5. Configuring IPMP Groups for Exclusive-IP Zones

After you create an exclusive-IP non-global zone in a Sun Cluster configuration, perform the following steps.
# Manually configure IPMP groups in each {{/etc/hostname._adapter{_}}} file that is on the zone. You must configure an IPMP group for each public-network adapter that is used for data-service traffic in the zone. This information is not inherited from the global zone. See ["Public Networks"|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2555/z40001f61026966?a=view] in the _Sun Cluster Software Installation Guide_ for more information about configuring IPMP groups in a cluster.
# Set up name-to-address mappings for all logical-hostname resources that are used by the zone.
## Add name-to-address mappings to the {{/etc/inet/hosts}} file on the zone. This information is not inherited from the global zone.
## If you use a name server, add the name-to-address mappings.

[Top|#top]

h4. {anchor:Global_zone_override}New {{Global_zone_override}} Resource Property

A new resource property, {{Global_zone_override}}, is introduced in patch 126106-17 for SPARC based platforms and 126107-17 for x86 based platforms. This property overrides the value of the resource type property {{Global_zone}} for a specified resource. For more information about the {{Global_zone_override}} resource property and its effect on the {{Global_zone}} resource type property, see the sections for the [r_properties(5)|#r_properties] and [rt_properties(5)|#rt_properties] man pages.

[Top|#top]

h4. {anchor:solaris9brand}(SPARC) Support for solaris9 Brand Zones in HA-Containers

The Sun Cluster Data Service for Solaris Containers now supports {{solaris9}} branded zones on SPARC based systems. The minimum patch requirement for this functionality is 126020-03.

Procedures in the [Sun Cluster Data Service for Solaris Containers Guide|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2578] that pertain to {{solaris8}} branded zones also apply to {{solaris9}} branded zones.

[Top|#top]

{anchor:11g}(SPARC) Support for Oracle 11g

Sun Cluster software now supports Oracle 11g in HA-Oracle and Oracle RAC configurations on SPARC based platforms. Support is introduced in the May 2008 Core patch. Procedures in the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 documentation set are valid for Oracle 11g. If an instruction is specific to a particular Oracle version, use instructions that apply to Oracle 10g for an Oracle 11g configuration.
{info:title=Note:}When you install the {{ORCLudlm}} package on Sun Cluster nodes for Oracle 11g RAC support, ensure that the package is installed with a UNIX group that is part of the groups of the {{crs}} user (Oracle Clusterware software owner) and the groups of the {{oracle}} user (Oracle Database software owner). For example, if the {{dba}} group is used for {{ORCLudlm}} installation, the {{dba}} group should be either the primary group or the secondary group for both the {{crs}} user and the {{oracle}} user.

h4. {anchor:opt-guestdomain} (SPARC) Support for Logical Domains (LDoms) Guest Domains as Cluster Nodes

You can now configure Logical Domains (LDoms) 1.0.3 guest domains as virtual Sun Cluster nodes. In this configuration, a guest domain node is viewed the same as a physical node of a cluster. Support is introduced in the May 2008 Core patch.

You can configure Logical Domains (LDoms) guest and I/O domains as virtual Sun Cluster nodes. In other words, you can create a clustered pair, pair+N, N+1, and N*N cluster that consists of any combination of physical machines, LDoms I/O domains, and LDoms guest domains. You can also create clusters that consist of only LDoms I/O domains or only guest domains.

The following sections describe topologies, requirements and restrictions, and installation and configuration procedures for guest domains as cluster nodes:
* [SPARC: LDom Guest Domains: Cluster in a Box Topology|#GGTCS]
* [SPARC: LDoms Guest Domains: Single Cluster Spans Two Different Servers Topology|#GGTCG]
* [SPARC: LDoms Guest Domains: Clusters Span Two Different Servers Topology|#GGVTU]
* [SPARC: LDom Guest Domains: Redundant I/O Domains|#GGTBA]
* [SPARC: Software and Patch Requirements to Support LDoms Software|#ldoms-sw]
* [SPARC: Guidelines for Logical Domains in a Cluster|#ldoms-guidelines]
* [SPARC: How to Install Logical Domains Software and Create Domains|#ldoms-install]
* [SPARC: Configuring Logical Domains as Cluster Nodes|#ldomsnodes]

[Top|#top]

h5. {anchor:GGTCS} SPARC: LDom Guest Domains: Cluster in a Box Topology

In this Logical Domains (LDoms) guest domain topology, a cluster and every node within that cluster are located on the same server. Each LDoms guest domain node acts the same as a physical node in a cluster. To preclude your having to include a quorum device, this configuration includes three nodes rather than only two.

In this topology, you do not need to connect each virtual switch (vsw) for the private network to a physical network because they need only communicate with each other. In this topology, cluster nodes can also share the same storage device, as all cluster nodes are located on the same server. To learn more about guidelines for using and installing LDoms domains in a cluster, see [SPARC: Guidelines for Logical Domains in a Cluster|#ldoms-guidelines], [SPARC: How to Install Logical Domains Software and Create Domains|#ldoms-install], and [SPARC: Configuring LDoms Domains as Cluster Nodes|#ldomsnodes].

This topology does not provide high availability, as all nodes in the cluster are located on the same server. However, developers and administrators might find this topology useful for testing and other non-production tasks. This topology is also called a "cluster in a box".

The following figure illustrates a cluster in a box configuration.

[Top|#top]

h5. {anchor:GGTCG} SPARC: LDoms Guest Domains: Single Cluster Spans Two Different Servers Topology

In this Logical Domains (LDoms) guest domain topology, a single cluster spans two different servers and each cluster comprises one node on each server. Each LDoms guest domain node acts the same as a physical node in a cluster. To learn more about guidelines for using and installing LDoms domains in a cluster, see [SPARC: Guidelines for Logical Domains in a Cluster|#ldoms-guidelines], [SPARC: How to Install Logical Domains Software and Create Domains|#ldoms-install], and [SPARC: Configuring LDoms Domains as Cluster Nodes|#ldomsnodes].

The following figure illustrates a configuration in which a single cluster spans two different servers.

!SingleClusterDifferentServers.gif|title="Illustration: The preceding context describes the graphic."!

[Top|#top]

h5. {anchor:GGVTU} SPARC: LDoms Guest Domains: Clusters Span Two Different Servers Topology

In this Logical Domains (LDoms) guest domain topology, each cluster spans two different servers and each cluster comprises one node on each server. Each LDoms guest domain node acts the same as a physical node in a cluster. In this configuration, because both clusters share the same interconnect switch, you must specify a different private network address on each cluster. Otherwise, if you specify the same private network address on clusters that share an interconnect switch, the configuration fails.

To learn more about guidelines for using and installing LDoms domains in a cluster, see [SPARC: Guidelines for Logical Domains in a Cluster|#ldoms-guidelines], [SPARC: How to Install Logical Domains Software and Create Domains|#ldoms-install], and [SPARC: Configuring LDoms Domains as Cluster Nodes|#ldomsnodes].

The following figure illustrates a configuration in which more than a single cluster spans two different servers.

[Top|#top]

h5. {anchor:GGTBA} SPARC: LDom Guest Domains: Redundant I/O Domains

In this Logical Domains (LDoms) guest domain topology, multiple I/O domains ensure that guest domains, or nodes within the cluster, continue to operate if an I/O domain fails. Each LDoms guest domain node acts the same as a physical node in a cluster.

In this topology, the guest domain runs IP network multipathing (IPMP) across two public networks, one through each I/O domain. Guest domains also mirror storage devices across different I/O domains. To learn more about guidelines for using and installing LDoms domains in a cluster, see [SPARC: Guidelines for Logical Domains in a Cluster|#ldoms-guidelines], [SPARC: How to Install Logical Domains Software and Create Domains|#ldoms-install], and [SPARC: Configuring LDoms Domains as Cluster Nodes|#ldomsnodes].

The following figure illustrates a configuration in which redundant I/O domains ensure that nodes within the cluster continue to operate if an I/O domain fails.

[Top|#top]

h5. {anchor:ldoms-sw}SPARC: Software and Patch Requirements to Support LDoms Software

Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software supports LDoms 1.0.3 I/O domains and guest domains as cluster nodes, with the following requirements:
* Solaris 10 5/08 OS
* At least Sun Cluster patch version 126106-15, installed in the guest domain
* The following Solaris 10 patches (minimum versions):
** 137042-01
** 137111-01
** 138042-02
** 138056-01

The Solaris 10 patches must be installed in the following locations:
* Guest domains that run Sun Cluster software
* Any I/O domains that export virtual devices to guest domains that run Sun Cluster software

[Top|#top]

h5. {anchor:ldoms-guidelines}SPARC: Guidelines for Logical Domains in a Cluster

The following is new information to support Logical Domains (LDoms) I/O domains or guest domains on a physically clustered machine that is SPARC hypervisor capable:
* *SCSI LUN requirement* \- The virtual shared storage device, or virtual disk backend, of an LDoms guest domain must be a full SCSI LUN in the I/O domain. You cannot use an arbitrary virtual device.
* *Fencing* \- Do not export a storage LUN to more than one guest domain on the same physical machine, unless you also disable fencing for that device. Otherwise, if two different guest domains on the same machine both have visibility to a device, the device would be fenced whenever one of the guest domains dies. The fencing of the device would panic any other guest domain that subsequently tries to access the device.
* *Network isolation*\- Guest domains that are located on the same physical machine but are configured in different clusters must be network isolated from each other. Use one of the following methods:
** Configure the clusters to use different network interfaces in the I/O domain for the private network.
** Use different network addresses for each of the clusters.
* *Networking in guest domains*\- Network packets to and from guest domains must traverse service domains to reach the network drivers through virtual switches. Virtual switches use kernel threads that run at system priority. The virtual switch threads must be able to acquire needed CPU resources to perform critical cluster operations, including heartbeats, membership, checkpoints, and so forth.
While configuring virtual switches with the {{mode=sc}} setting enables expedited handling of cluster heartbeat packets, the reliability of other critical cluster operations can be enhanced by adding more CPU resources to the service domain under the following workloads:
** High interrupt load, such as due to network or disk I/O. Under extreme load, virtual switches can preclude system threads from running for a long time, including virtual switch threads.
** Real-time threads that are overly aggressive in retaining CPU resources. Real-time threads run at a higher priority than virtual-switch threads, which can restrict CPU resources for virtual-switch threads for an extended time.
* *Exporting storage from I/O domains*\- If you configure a cluster that is composed of Logical Domains I/O domains, do not export its storage devices to other guest domains that also run Sun Cluster software.
* *Solaris I/O multipathing* \- Do not run Solaris I/O multipathing software (MPxIO) from guest domains. Instead, run Solaris I/O multipathing software in the I/O domain and export it to the guest domains.
* *Private interconnect IP address range* \- The private network is shared by all guest domains that are created on the same physical machine and is visible to all these domains. Before you specify a private-network IP address range to the {{scinstall{}}}utility for use by a guest-domain cluster, ensure that the address range is not already in use by another guest domain on the same physical machine.
* *Adapter names* \- When you configure an I/O domain or a guest domain as a cluster node, specify adapter names by their virtual names, {{vnet{_}N{_}}}, such as {{vnet0}}, {{vnet1}}, and so forth. Virtual adapter names are recorded in the {{/etc/path_to_inst}} file.
* *Cluster Control Panel* \- You cannot use Cluster Control Panel (CCP) software, such as {{cconsole}} or {{cssh}}, to connect to LDoms guest domains. However, you can use CCP software to connect to LDoms I/O domains.

For more information about Logical Domains, see the [_Logical Domains (LDoms) 1.0.3 Administration Guide_|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-4894-10].

h3. {anchor:ldoms-compat}SPARC: Logical Domains (LDoms)

CR 6684721 (Need a way to force file backed virtual I/O to be synchronous) is a known issue in Logical Domains (LDoms) 1.0.3 software that impacts Sun Cluster software. The workaround is to add the following entry to the {{/etc/system}} file on the I/O domain:
{panel}
set vds:vd_file_write_flags = 0
{panel}Contact your Sun service representative to determine whether a patch is available.

h3. {anchor:excl-ip} Exclusive-IP Zones

The use of LogicalHostname and SharedAddress resources is limited to non-global zones of shared-IP type only. This is the default IP type for zones and no administrator steps are required.

You can still use zones of {{ip-type=exclusive}} with the cluster, but network resources, including NICs, IPMP groups, and IP addresses, are not monitored and managed by Sun Cluster software.

[Top|#top]

h3. {anchor:GEUSQ} {{fssnap}} Support

Sun Cluster software does not support the {{fssnap}} command, which is a feature of UFS. However, you can use the {{fssnap}} command on local file systems that are not controlled by Sun Cluster software. The following restrictions apply to {{fssnap}} support:
* The {{fssnap}} command is supported on local file systems that are not managed by Sun Cluster software.
* The {{fssnap}} command is not supported on cluster file systems.
* The {{fssnap}} command is not supported on local file systems that are under the control of HAStoragePlus.

[Top|#top]

h3. {anchor:GEEER} Solaris Volume Manager GUI

The Enhanced Storage module of Solaris™ Management Console (Solaris Volume Manager) is not compatible with Sun Cluster software. Use the command-line interface or Sun Cluster utilities to configure Solaris Volume Manager software.

[Top|#top]

h3. {anchor:GEEES} Loopback File System (LOFS)

Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software does not support the use of LOFS under certain conditions. If you must enable LOFS on a cluster node, such as when you configure non-global zones, first determine whether the LOFS restrictions apply to your configuration. See the guidelines in ["Solaris OS Feature Restrictions"|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2555/6ne5aih77?a=view#ch1planning-5003] in _Sun Cluster Software Installation Guide for Solaris OS_ for more information about the restrictions and workarounds that permit the use of LOFS when restricting conditions exist.

[Top|#top]

h3. {anchor:sharedQFS} Shared QFS With Solaris Volume Manager for Sun Cluster

The following behavior has been reported on x86 Oracle RAC configurations with one or more Sun StorageTek QFS shared file systems that mount devices from multiowner disksets of Solaris Volume Manager for Sun Cluster (CR 6655081).

If the QFS file system metadata server is located on a node that is not the master node of the disk set and that node loses all storage connectivity, Oracle CRS will reboot the node. At the same time, the other nodes that are QFS metadata client nodes might experience errors writing to related database files. The write error condition corrects itself when the Oracle RAC instances are restarted. This restart should be an automatic recovery action by Oracle CRS, after the QFS metadata server and Solaris Volume Manager automatic recovery has been completed by Sun Cluster software.

[Top|#top]

h3. {anchor:trusted} Solaris Trusted Extensions

Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software supports Solaris non-global zones within a cluster. Starting with the Solaris 10 11/06 release, the Solaris 10 OS includes support for Solaris Trusted Extensions. Solaris Trusted Extensions uses non-global zones as well. The interaction between Sun Cluster and Solaris Trusted Extensions by using non-global zones has not been tested. Customers are advised to proceed with caution when using these technologies.

h4. {anchor:6732481}Node Panics when InfiniBand Transport Cable is Disabled (6732481)

*Problem Summary:* If the InfiniBand transport cable is disabled on a node that runs Sun Cluster 3.2 or 3.2 2/08, a panic can occur on the node.

*Workaround:* Perform one of the following actions:

* Upgrade to Sun Cluster 3.2 1/09.
* Apply the appropriate Sun Cluster 3.2 CORE patch: the latest version of Patch [126106|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/advsearch.do?collection=PATCH&type=collections&max=50&language=en&queryKey5=126106&toDocument=yes] (Solaris 10) or Patch [126107|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/advsearch.do?collection=PATCH&type=collections&max=50&language=en&queryKey5=126107&toDocument=yes] (Solaris 10_x86) is available on SunSolve.

h4. {anchor:GEBGA}The reconf.pl  Script Fails on a Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 Server  Running Sun Cluster Software in an LDOM Configuration (6749189)

*Problem Summary*: If you have a Sun SPARC Enterprise T5440 Server that runs Sun Cluster software in an LDOM configuration, do not run the reconf.pl script. This script can change device paths and device instances, and can damage or destroy your Sun Cluster configuration. Recovery is extremely difficult, if not impossible.

*Workaround*: Do not run the reconf.pl script with this configuration.

h4. {anchor:GEBGZ} {{clnode remove \-f}} Option Fails to Remove the Node With the Solaris Volume Manager Device Group (6471834)

*Problem Summary*: The {{clnode remove \-force}} command should remove nodes from the metasets. The _Sun Cluster System Administration Guide for Solaris OS_ provides procedures for removing a node from the cluster. These procedures instruct the user to run the {{metaset}} command for the Solaris Volume Manager disk set removal prior to running {{clnode remove}}.

*Workaround*: If the procedures were not followed, it might be necessary to clear the stale node data from the CCR in the usual way:
# From an active cluster node, use the {{metaset}} command to clear the node from the Solaris Volume Manager disk sets.
# Run {{clnode clear \-force _obsolete_nodename{_}}}.

h4. {anchor:GEDHG} Entries in {{Auxnodelist}} Property Cause {{SEGV}} During Scalable Resource Creation (6494243)

*Problem Summary*: The {{Auxnodelist}} property of the shared-address resource cannot be used during shared-address resource creation. If this property is used, it causes validation errors and {{SEGV}} when the scalable resource that depends on this shared address network resource is created. The scalable resource's validate error message is in the following format:
{panel}
{{Method _methodname_ (scalable svc) on resource _resourcename_ stopped or terminated{}}}{{{}due to receipt of signal 11}}
{panel}Also, the core file is generated from {{ssm_wrapper}}. Users will not be able to set the {{Auxnodelist}} property and thus cannot identify the cluster nodes that can host the shared address but never serve as primary.

*Workaround*: On one node, re-create the shared-address resource without specifying the {{Auxnodelist}} property. Then rerun the scalable-resource creation command and use the shared-address resource that you re-created as the network resource.

[Top|#top]

h4. More Validation Checks Needed When Combining DIDs (6605101)

*Problem Summary*: The {{/usr/cluster/bin/scdidadm}} and {{/usr/cluster/bin/cldevice}} commands are currently unable to verify that replicated SRDF devices being combined into a single DID device are in fact replicas of each other and belong to the specified replication group.

*Workaround*: Take special care when combining DID devices for use with SRDF. Ensure that the DID device instances specified are replicas of each other and that they belong to the specified replication group.

[Top|#top]

h4. Sun NAS Quorum Is Offline After a Cluster Reboot (6614299)

*Problem Summary*: A quorum device might be offline when the cluster nodes are rebooted under the following conditions:
* An iSCSI LUN on a supported NAS appliance is configured to provide quorum to a cluster.
* That NAS appliance is present on a different subnet than the cluster nodes.

*Workaround*: Configure the NAS appliance on the same subnet as the cluster nodes and ensure that NAS target LUNs are statically configured targets.

[Top|#top]

h4. Node Panics Due to Loss of Quorum When iSCSI Array (STK 2510) LUN Is Used as Quorum Device (6658472)

*Problem Summary*: A quorum device might be offline when the cluster nodes are rebooted under the following conditions:
* An iSCSI LUN on a supported STK 2510 provides quorum to a cluster.
* That STK 2510 is present on a different subnet than the cluster nodes.

*Workaround*: Configure the STK 2510 on the same subnet as the cluster nodes.

[Top|#top]

h4. Interrupting {{cldevice combine}} Can Leave the DID Device Configuration in an Inconsistent State (6616497)

*Problem Summary*: The {{/usr/cluster/bin/cldevice combine}} command has to update multiple pieces of information in several different places, including the DID driver's in-kernel information and multiple CCR tables. Interrupting the command while it is still in progress can leave some of these pieces of information out of date.

*Workaround*: If possible, avoid interrupting the {{cldevice}} command while it is in progress. If the command is interrupted, perform one of the following actions as applicable:
* If only the DID driver's in-kernel information was updated, and no CCR tables were modified, rebooting the cluster node on which the DID driver's information was updated returns the data to its prior state, and the {{cldevice}} command can be rerun.
The CCR tables that are updated are {{/etc/cluster/ccr/replicated_devices}} and {{/etc/cluster/ccr/did_instances}}. The {{replicated_devices}} table is updated first.
* If the {{cldevice}} command is interrupted before the changes to the {{did_instances}} table are committed, the updates to the {{replicated_devices}} table will have to be manually backed out.

h4. The Validate Method Of SUNW.ScalMountPoint on a Resource Is Terminated Due to SIGSEGV Signal (6606281)

*Problem Summary*: Writing comments in the shared-QFS {{mcf}} file after the file-system information can cause the {{SUNW.ScalMountPoint}} methods to fail, due to improper handling by the {{SUNW.ScalMountPoint}} resource type. The following is an example of an {{mcf}} file that can lead to a problem:
{panel}
{{\# File system for data{}}}{{{}Data                          300     ms      Data    on      shared{}}}{{\#/dev/md/oracle/dsk/d30       301     md      Data    on{}}}{{/dev/md/oracle/dsk/d31        302     md      Data    on }}
{panel}{*}Workaround*: Avoid writing the comments after the file-system information in the {{mcf}} file.

h4. Creating an nfs resource throws an error message on s10u3 (6496879)

*Problem Summary*: Creating an nfs resource throws the following error message on s10u3.
{panel}
WARNING: lockd: cannot contact statd (error 4), continuing
{panel}{*}Workaround*: The warning message shows up as {{lockd}} is being shut down while it is waiting for the {{rpc}} call to contact {{statd}}, because {{statd}} was not able to completely start up or is down. That {{rpc}} call is interrupted when {{svcadm disable nlockmgr}} is issued. This message is harmless and can be ignored.

h4. Sun Cluster does not support {{showmount(1M)}} and {{dfmounts(1M)}} (6503661)

*Problem Summary*: Using either {{dfmounts}} or {{showmount \-a}} commands to display the current NFS mounts from a node in a Sun Cluster configured as an NFS server does not result in a correct list of the active mounted resources. Instead, the list is usually empty, but can occasionally contain a few entries that may only correspond to historical client activity.

*Workaround*: The large number of clients in {{/etc/rmtab}} slows down the {{mountd}} startup in NFSv3, which leads to start timeouts in the cluster. Hence, {{/etc/rmtab}} is truncated for {{mountd}} to start fast. Any changes to the HA-NFS agent to patch up this problem would lead to switchover or failover issues.

h4. Sun Cluster Data Service for SAP Web Application Server resource groups failing over when pub net is brought down on all the nodes simultaneously (6554601)

*Problem Summary*: Sun Cluster Data Service for SAP Web Application Server resource groups that have another resource group with strong negative affinity with them going offline. The attempt to failover the resource group with strong negative affinity fails, but at the same time the resource group that is declared in {{rg_affinities}} with {{\-\-}} goes to offline on the other node. When we try to bring down the resource groups the resources goes into stop failed state because they need the pub net. The resource group goes to {{stop_failed}} state and the resource group remains unavailable even after pub net is restored until the user intervenes.

*Workaround*: Comment out {{/net}} in {{/etc/auto_master}} and remove {{nis}} under {{automount}}, {{hosts}}, {{ipnodes}} in the {{/etc/nsswitch.conf}} file.

h4. For SAP version 7.1, the SAP Web Application Server primary instance resource goes to {{Degraded}} mode after switchover of {{enq-msg}} resource group (6759302)

*Problem Summary*: In the Sun cluster environment for SAP 7.1, the SAP Web Application Server probe returns an error message with status {{Degraded}} after switch over of {{enq-msg}} resource group.

Once the switch over of {{enq-msg}} resource is complete, the SAP Web Application Server restarts due to a dependency on the messaging server. The restart of the SAP Web Application Server fails and returns an error message "error 503 service unavailable".

*Workaround*: Refer to SAP note 966416 and follow the instructions to remove all krnlreg entries from the profile in order to prevent deadlock situations.

h4. For SAP version 7.1, the SAP Web Application Server go to {{STOP_Failed}} mode after a public network failure (6766425)

*Problem Summary*: In the Sun cluster environment for SAP 7.1, the SAP Web Application Server go to {{STOP_Failed}} mode after a public network failure. After a public network failure, the resource should failover instead of going to {{STOP_Failed}} mode.


*Workaround*: This issue is not related to the Sun Cluster Data Service for SAP and it is addressed in SAP note 888312. Refer to SAP note 888312 to resolve this issue.

h4. InPage Editing of Resource or Resource Group Properties Does Not Work in Internet Explorer (6607871)

*Problem Summary*: Using the InPage Editing feature to modify resource or resource group properties does not work when you are using Sun Cluster Manager in Internet Explorer. The properties fields on the resource or resource group table listing do not display as editable fields. Instead, they remain as just the display fields. No errors messages are displayed.

*Workaround*: Use the Edit Properties wizard at the top of the properties table listing to edit resource or resource group properties.

h4. Auto Discovery During Installation for Sun Cluster/Transport Does Not Work for igb Interfaces on Solaris OS x64 Platforms (6821699)

*Problem Summary:* During a Sun Cluster installation, auto discovery for Sun Cluster/transport does not work for igb interfaces on Solaris OS x64 platforms.

*Workaround:* When you run scinstall and you are prompted for the interconnect adapters, select *Other* and type each igb interface name.

[Top|#top]

h4. {anchor:GEDPT} Autodiscovery With InfiniBand Configurations Can Sometimes Suggest Two Paths Using the Same Adapter (6299097)

*Problem Summary*: If InfiniBand is used as the cluster transport and two adapters are on each node with two ports per adapter and a total of two switches, the {{scinstall}} utility's adapter autodiscovery could suggest two transport paths that use the same adapter.

*Workaround*: Manually specify the transport adapters on each node.

h4. Installer Exception During {{pkgrm}} Due to Missing {{/tmp/admin.txt}} (6532980)

*Problem Summary*: Starting the Sun Java Availability Suite {{installer}} to install Sun Cluster software and related products fails with a Java exception. The error reported on the screen is {{pkgrm: ERROR: unable to open admin file /tmp/admin.txt}}. The installation can fail irrespective of the type of platform either while installing Sun Cluster software alone or even when only the Shared Components are being installed or upgraded.

*Workaround*: Check whether the file {{/tmp/admin.txt}} exists. If it exists, check whether this file has both read and write permissions for {{root}} user. If {{root}} does not have these permissions, assign the permissions to {{root}} by using the {{chmod}} command. If the file {{/tmp/admin.txt}} does not exist, create this file with read and write permissions for {{root}} user with the following content:
{panel}

{panel}[Top|#top]

h4. Ensure That a Solaris 10 Cluster Node Is Not Forwarding Packets (6559444)

*Problem Summary*: The {{scinstall}}(1M) command creates the appropriate configuration to ensure that a new Solaris 9 or earlier cluster node does not function as a router. In Solaris 10, the method for disabling the router function changed and {{scinstall}} has not yet been updated. As of the Solaris 10 release, packet forwarding is disabled by default. If a Solaris 10 machine has never had forwarding enabled, this default configuration is correct and sufficient. Scalable-service response and load balancing might be impacted if packet forwarding is enabled.

*Workaround*: To find out if forwarding is enabled or disabled, execute the following command:
{panel}
{{\# */usr/sbin/routeadm{*}}}
{panel}IPv4 routing should be enabled and IPv4 forwarding should be disabled. IPv6 routing and forwarding should both be disabled. If IPv4 forwarding was enabled before Sun Cluster software was installed, execute the following command:
{panel}
{{\# */usr/sbin/routeadm \-d ipv4-forwarding{*}}}
{panel}See also the {{routeadm}}(1M) man page.

h4. Sun Cluster Manager Might Not Work Correctly with Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 and Solaris 10 10/08 OS (6584336 and 6701123)

*Problem Summary*: If you install the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software with Solaris 10 10/08 OS, the Sun Cluster installation removes the correct version of the  SUNWcacaort package and installs the wrong version of this package. The result is that Sun Cluster Manager (formerly SunPlex Manager) might not start. See 6584336 for more information.

*Workaround*: After you install Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software, reinstall the SUNWcacaort package from the Solaris 10 10/08 OS distribution. You must then manually synchronize the Common Agent  Container keys. See the [Sun Cluster Software Installation Guide for Solaris OS|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2555] for instructions on how to manually synchronize the keys.

*Problem Summary*: Sun Cluster Manager is unable to correctly display the information in the Tasks and Topology tabs. See 6701123 for more information.

*Workaround*: Perform the following commands on all cluster nodes:
{panel}
        # cd /usr/cluster/lib/SunClusterManager/WEB-INF/classes
        # mv ds ds.orig
        # cp \-r /usr/cluster/lib/ds ds

h4. Cannot Safely Link Applications Against libstlport4 on Sun Cluster (6298053)

*Problem Summary*: An application that is running on a Sun Cluster configuration that is linked with {{stlport4}} might crash when the {{nscd}} daemon is not running and the application does NSS-related calls.

*Workaround*: On each cluster node, make modifications to the following configuration files.
{note:title=Note}If you run the {{sccheck}} utility after removing the {{cluster}} switch from the {{nsswitch.conf}} lookup table, you might receive an error message about the missing {{cluster}} switch. Because you intentionally removed the {{cluster}} switch from the file, you can ignore this message.
{note}# Make a backup copy of the {{/etc/inet/hosts}} file, {{/etc/netmasks}} file, and {{/etc/nsswitch.conf}} file on each node.
# Ensure that each private hostname in the cluster is listed in the {{/etc/inet/hosts}} file on each cluster node. These addresses are associated with the {{clprivnet0}} interface. The following example shows how to determine the IP address of a node's private hostname:
{panel}
{{\#}} {{{*}ifconfig clprivnet0 \| fmt{*}{}}}{{{}clprivnet0:}}{{{}flags=1009843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,MULTI_BCAST,PRIVATE,IPv4>}}{{{}mtu 1500 index 5{}}}{{{}inet *172.16.4.1* netmask fffffe00 broadcast 172.16.5.255{}}}{{{}ether 0:0:0:0:0:1}}&nbsp;
{{\# *cat > /etc/inet/hosts <<EOS{*}{}}}{{{}172.16.0.129 clusternode1-priv-physical1{}}}{{{}172.16.1.1 clusternode1-priv-physical2{}}}{{{}{*}172.16.4.1* clusternode1-priv{}}}{{{}172.16.0.130 clusternode2-priv-physical1{}}}{{{}172.16.1.2 clusternode2-priv-physical2{}}}{{{}172.16.4.2 clusternode2-priv{}}}{{{}EOS}}
{panel}
# Ensure that all cluster-interconnect netmasks are listed in the {{/etc/netmasks}} file on all cluster nodes. You can use the following script to collect the list of netmasks:
{panel}
{{\# *ifconfig \-a \|*}} \
{{nawk '/flags/&&\!/PRIVATE/{p=0\}}}\
{{/flags/&&/PRIVATE/\{p=1\}}}\
{{p==1&&$3 ~ /netmask/{print $2\}'\|}}\
{{while read i; do getent netmasks $i; done > /tmp/netmasks}}
{panel}Check the list of collected netmasks, for example:
{panel}
{{\# *cat /tmp/netmasks{*}{}}}{{{}172.16.1.1 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 255.255.255.128{}}}{{{}172.16.0.129 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 255.255.255.128{}}}{{{}172.16.4.1 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 255.255.254.0}}
{panel}When the list is correct, append the entries to the {{netmasks}} files:
{panel}
{{\# *cat /tmp/netmasks >> /etc/netmasks{*}}}
{panel}4) On each cluster node, remove the {{cluster}} switch from the lookups for the {{hosts}} and {{netmasks}} entries. For example:

_Before modification:_
{panel}
...
{{hosts: *cluster* files files dns nisplus dns}}...
{{netmasks: *cluster* files nisplus}}...
{panel}{_}After modification:_
{panel}
...
{{hosts: files files dns nisplus dns}}...
{{netmasks: files nisplus}}...

h4. {anchor:GESSO} {{vxio}} Major Numbers Different Across the Nodes When the Root Disk Is Encapsulated (6445917)

*Problem Summary*: For clusters that run Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM), a standard upgrade or dual-partition upgrade of any of the following software fails if the root disk is encapsulated:
* Upgrading the Solaris OS to a different version
* Upgrading VxVM
* Upgrading Sun Cluster software

The cluster node panics and fails to boot after upgrade. This failure is due to the major-number or minor-number changes made by VxVM during the upgrade.

*Workaround*: Unencapsulate the root disk before you begin the upgrade.
{note:title=Caution}If the previous procedure is not followed correctly, you might experience serious unexpected problems on all nodes being upgraded. Also, unencapsulation and encapsulation of root disk causes an additional reboot (each time) of the node automatically, increasing the number of required reboots during upgrade.

h4. {anchor:GESRE} Cannot Use Zones Following Live Upgrade From Sun Cluster Version 3.1 on Solaris 9 to Version 3.2 on Solaris 10 (6509958)

*Problem Summary*: Following a live upgrade from Sun Cluster version 3.1 on Solaris 9 to version 3.2 on Solaris 10, zones cannot be used properly with the cluster software. The problem is that the {{pspool}} data is not created for the Sun Cluster packages. So those packages that must be propagated to the non-global zones, such as {{SUNWsczu}}, are not propagated correctly.

*Workaround*: After the Sun Cluster packages have been upgraded by using the {{scinstall \-R}} command but before the cluster has booted into cluster mode, run the following script twice:
* Once for the Sun Cluster framework packages
* Once for the Sun Cluster data-service packages

Prepare and run this script in one of the following ways:
* Set up the variables for the Sun Cluster framework packages and run the script. Then modify the {{PATHNAME}} variable for the data service packages and rerun the script.
* Create two scripts, one with variables set in the script for the framework packages and one with variables set for the data service packages. Then run both scripts.

# Become superuser.
# Create a script with the following content.
{panel}
{{\#\!/bin/ksh}}

{{typeset PLATFORM=$\{PLATFORM:}}{{{}{}}}{{{}{}}}{{{}{}}}{{{}-`uname \-p`\}{-}{}}}{{{}{}}}{{{}{}}}{{{}{}}}{{{}{-}typeset PATHNAME=$\{PATHNAME:-{}}}{{/cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_$\{PLATFORM\}/Product/sun_cluster/Solaris_10/Packages\}{}}}{{{}typeset BASEDIR=$\{BASEDIR:-/\}}}

{panel}
# Set the variables {{PLATFORM}}, {{PATHNAME}}, and {{BASEDIR}}.
Either set these variables as environment variables or modify the values in the script directly.





{section}






{column:width=10%}

{{PLATFORM}}
{column}
{column:width=90%}

The name of the platform. For example, it could be {{sparc}} or {{x86}}. By default, the {{PLATFORM}} variable is set to the output of the {{uname \-p}} command.
{column}
{section}





{section}






{column:width=10%}

{{PATHNAME}}
{column}
{column:width=90%}

A path to the device from where the Sun Cluster framework or data service packages can be installed. This value corresponds to the {{\-d}} option in the {{pkgadd}} command.
As an example, for Sun Cluster framework packages, this value would be of the following form:
{panel}
{{/cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_$\{PLATFORM\}/Product/sun_cluster/Solaris_10/Packages}}
{panel}For the data services packages, this value would be of the following form:
{panel}
{{/cdrom/cdrom0/Solaris_$\{PLATFORM\}/Product/sun_cluster_agents/Solaris_10/Packages}}
{panel}
{column}
{section}





{section}






{column:width=10%}

{{BASEDIR}}
{column}
{column:width=90%}

The full path name of a directory to use as the root path, which corresponds to the {{\-R}} option in the {{pkgadd}} command. For live upgrade, set this value to the root path that is used with the {{\-R}} option in the {{scinstall}} command. By default, the {{BASEDIR}} variable is set to the root ({{/}}) file system.
{column}
{section}
# Run the script, once for the Sun Cluster framework packages and once for the data service packages.
After the script is run, you should see the following message at the command prompt for each package:
{panel}
{{Transferring _pkgname_ package instance}}
{panel}
{info:title=Note}If the {{pspool}} directory already exists for a package or if the script is run twice for the same set of packages, the following error is displayed at the command prompt:
{panel}
{{Transferring _pkgname_ package instance{}}}{{{}pkgadd: ERROR: unable to complete package transfer{}}}{{&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-\- identical version of&nbsp;_pkgname_ already exists on destination device}}
{panel}This is a harmless message and can be safely ignored.
{info}
# After you run the script for both framework packages and data service packages, boot your nodes into cluster mode.

* [Required Firmware|#reqfirmware]

If you are upgrading to Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software, see [_Sun Cluster Upgrade Guide for Solaris OS_|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2270]. Applying a Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 Core patch does not provide the same result as upgrading the software to the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 release.
{info:title=Note}Read the patch {{README}} file before applying or removing any patch.
{info}If you are using the rebooting patch (node) method to install the Sun Cluster core patch, [125510|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-125510-02-1] (S9/SPARC), [125511|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-125511-02-1](S10/SPARC), or [125512|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-21-125512-02-1](S19/x64), you must have the \-02 version of the patch installed before you can install later versions of the patch. If you do not have the \-02 patch installed and want to install at least version \-03, you must use the rebooting cluster method.
See the following list for examples of patching scenarios:
* If you have Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software using the Solaris 10 Operating System on SPARC with patch 125511-02 installed and want to install at least 125511-03, use the rebooting node or rebooting cluster method.
* If you have Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software using the Solaris 10 Operating System on SPARC without 125511-02 installed and want to install at least 125511-03, choose one of the following methods:
** Use the rebooting cluster method to install 125511-03.
** Install 125511-02 by using the rebooting node method and then install 125511-03 by using the rebooting node method.

Complete the following procedure to apply the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 core patch.

h4. {anchor:GEZEH} How to Apply the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 Core Patch

# Install the patch by using the usual rebooting patch procedure for a core patch.
# Verify that the patch has been installed correctly on all nodes and is functioning properly.
# Register the new version of resource types {{SUNW.HAStoragePlus}}, {{SUNW.ScalDeviceGroup}}, {{and SUNW.ScalMountPoint}} that are being updated in this patch. Perform resource type upgrade on any existing resources of these types to the new versions.
For information about registering a resource type, see ["Registering a Resource Type"|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2561/6ne5g9kjf?a=view] in _Sun Cluster Data Services Planning and Administration Guide for Solaris OS_.
{note:title=Caution}If the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 core patch is removed, any resources that were upgraded in Step 3 must be downgraded to the earlier resource type versions. The procedure for downgrading requires planned downtime of these services. Therefore, do not perform Step 3 until you are ready to commit the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 core patch permanently to your cluster.

Before the first reboot on each cluster node, the pnm SMF manifest must be re-imported for the system to fully recover. Run the following command in the global zone:
{panel}
{{\# *svccfg import /var/svc/manifest/system/cluster/pnm.xml{*}}}
{panel}If you do not re-import the manifest, all data services could go into maintenance mode.
# Reboot into cluster mode all of the nodes from which you removed the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 core patch.
Rebooting all of the nodes from which you removed the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 core patch before rebooting any unaffected nodes ensures that the cluster is formed with the correct information in the CCR. If all nodes on the cluster were patched with the core patch, you can reboot the nodes into cluster mode in any order.

h3. {anchor:patch} Patch Management Tools

Information about patch management options for the Solaris OS is available at the web sites for [Sun Connection Update Manager|http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=4457d96d] and [Sun xVM Ops Center|http://www.sun.com/software/products/xvmopscenter/]. Additional information for using the Solaris patch management utility, {{patchadd}}, is provided in _Solaris Administration Guide: Basic Administration_ at [http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/prod/solaris|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/prod/solaris]. Refer to the version of this manual that is published for the Solaris OS release that is installed on your system.

If some patches must be applied when the node is in noncluster mode, you can apply them in a rolling fashion, one node at a time, unless a patch's instructions require that you shut down the entire cluster. Follow procedures in [How to Apply a Rebooting Patch (Node)|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2558/6ne5de338?a=view] in Sun Cluster System Administration Guide for Solaris OS to prepare the node and boot it into noncluster mode. For ease of installation, consider applying all patches at once to a node that you place in noncluster mode.

h3. {anchor:SWIG}Software Installation Guide

This section discusses errors and omissions in the _Sun Cluster Software Installation Guide for Solaris OS_.

h4. Location of Sun Cluster Plug-in for Service Provisioning System

In procedures in Chapter 3, "Establishing the Cluster", the location of documentation for the Sun Cluster Plug-in for Sun N1 Service Provisioning System is missing from the HTML version and incorrect in the PDF version. The correct location of this documentation is the following:

http://wikis.sun.com/display/SunCluster/Sun+Cluster+Framework+Plug-In

[Top|#top]

h3. {anchor:SYSADMIN}System Administration Guide

This section discusses errors and omissions in the _Sun Cluster System Administration Guide for Solaris OS_.

h4. Renaming a Replication Device

If the name of a replication device group changes, additional steps are required for Hitachi TrueCopy and SRDF. Follow the steps in [How to Configure DID Devices for Replication Using EMC Symmetrix Remote Data Facility (SRDF)|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2558/gfltb?a=view] in _Sun Cluster System Administration Guide for Solaris OS_, and perform the following steps:

For TrueCopy:

If the name of the replication device group (and the corresponding global device group) changes, you must rerun the {{cldevice replicate}} command to update the replicated device information.

For SRDF:

If the name of the replication device group (and the corresponding global device group) changes, you must update the replicated device information by first using the {{scdidadm \-b}} command to remove the existing information. The last step is to use the {{cldevice combine}} command to create a new, updated device.

h4. Releasing SCSI-2 Reservations

When you apply patches in single-user mode with failover zones and SCSI-2 reservations exist on the disks, follow the instructions in see [How to Apply Patches in Single-User Mode with Failover Zones|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2971/6n57mi2g0?a=view#geubs], with the following change:

After you complete Step #10, skip Step #11 and follow these instructions to determine if SCSI-2 reservations exist on the disks in the diskset.
a. For all disks in the diskset, run /usr/cluster/lib/sc/scsi \-c disfailfast \-d /dev/did/rdsk/d#s2.
b. If keys are listed, release them with: /usr/cluster/lib/sc/scsi \-c release \-d /dev/did/rdsk/d#s2.

h3. {anchor:GDYMM} Data Services Developer's Guide

This section discusses errors and omissions in the _Sun Cluster Data Services Developer's Guide for Solaris OS_.

h4. Method Timeout Behavior Is Changed

A description of the change in the behavior of method timeouts as of the Sun Cluster 3.2 release is missing. If an RGM method callback times out, the process is now killed by using the {{SIGABRT}} signal instead of the {{SIGTERM}} signal. Terminating the process by using the {{SIGABRT}} signal causes all members of the process group to generate a core file.
{info:title=Note}Avoid writing a data service method that creates a new process group. If your data service method does need to create a new process group, also write a signal handler for the {{SIGTERM}} and {{SIGABRT}} signals. Write the signal handlers to forward the {{SIGTERM}} or {{SIGABRT}} signal to the child process group before the signal handler terminates the parent process. This increases the likelihood that all processes that are spawned by the method are properly terminated.
{info}
h3. {anchor:Sybase} Sun Cluster Data Service for Sybase ASE Guide

This section discusses the errors and omissions in Sun Cluster Data Service for Sybase ASE Guide.

h4. HA-Sybase support of non-global zones in SPARC architecture

In the Sun Cluster Data Service for Sybase ASE guide the information that HA-Sybase can be installed and configured on
SPARC architecture is missing. Installation and configuration of HA-Sybase can be performed on non-global zones in a SPARC architecture also and this is a documentation error.

[Top|#top]

h2. Network-Attached Storage Devices Manual

The section "Requirements When Configuring Sun NAS Devices as Quorum Devices" omits the following requirement:

The Sun NAS device must be located on the same network as the cluster nodes. If a Sun NAS quorum device is not located on the same network as the cluster nodes, the quorum device is at risk of not responding at boot time within the timeout period, causing the cluster bootup to fail due to lack of quorum.

{section}






{column:width=5%}

+
{column}

h4. {anchor:GEEEK} {{clresourcegroup}}(1CL)

* The command syntax and description for the {{evacuate}} subcommand incorrectly states that you can evacuate more than one node or zone in the same command invocation. Instead, you can specify only one node or zone in the {{evacuate}} command.
* The man page incorrectly states that the {{\-s}} _state_ option is available for use with the {{list}} subcommands. The {{\-s}} option is currently not available in the {{clresourcegroup}} command for the {{list}} subcommand. This option is only available for the {{status}} subcommand. Ignore all information in the man page about the {{\-s}} option when used with the {{list}} subcommand.
* The following option is missing from the {{clresourcegroup}}(1CL) man page:





{section}






{column:width=5%}

{{\-u}}
{column}
{column:width=95%}

Specifies that the command operates on suspended resource groups, if you specify the + operand. If you do not also specify the {{\-u}} option when you specify the + operand, the command ignores all suspended resource groups.
The {{\-u}} option is valid when the + operand is specified with the {{add-node}}, {{manage}}, {{offline}}, {{online}}, {{quiesce}}, {{remaster}}, {{remove-node}}, {{restart}}, {{set}}, {{switch}}, and {{unmanage}} subcommands.
{column}
{section}
* The description of the + operand should state that, when used with the {{add-node}}, {{manage}}, {{offline}}, {{online}}, {{quiesce}}, {{remaster}}, {{remove-node}}, {{restart}}, {{set}}, {{switch}}, or {{unmanage}} subcommand, the command ignores all suspended resource groups, unless you also specify the {{\-u}} option.

[Top|#top]

h4. {anchor:r_properties} {{r_properties}}(5)

The following new resource property is added:

h5. {{Global_zone_override}} (boolean)

This property is allowed only for resource types that set the {{Global_zone=TRUE}} property in the RTR file. The setting of the {{Global_zone_override}} property overrides the value of the resource type property {{Global_zone}} for the particular resource.

Setting the {{Global_zone_override}} property to {{FALSE}} forces the resource methods to execute in the non-global zone in which the resource group is configured, rather than always executing in the global zone as they usually would when the {{Global_zone property}} is set to {{TRUE}}.

This property is optional if a default value is specified in the RTR file.

If the {{Tunable}} attribute is not specified in the RTR file, the {{Tunable}} value for the property is {{At_creation}}. You can set the {{Tunable}} attribute in the RTR file to {{At_creation}}, {{When_disabled}}, or {{Anytime}}.

Use caution when you set the {{Tunable}} attribute to Anytime in the RTR file. Changes to the {{Global_zone_override}} property take effect immediately, even if the resource is online. For example, suppose that the {{Global_zone_override}} tunability is set to {{ANYTIME}} and the {{Global_zone_override}} property is currently set to {{FALSE}} on a resource that is configured in a non-global zone. When the resource is switched online, the starting methods are executed in the non-global zone. If the {{Global_zone_override}} property is then set to {{TRUE}} and the resource is switched offline, the stopping methods are executed in the global zone. Method code must be able to deal with this possibility. If it cannot, then you must set the {{Tunable}} attribute to {{When_disabled}} or {{At_creation}} instead.
| Category | Conditional/Optional |
| Default | {{TRUE}} |
| Tunable | At creation |

h4. {anchor:rt_properties} {{rt_properties}}(5)


h5. {{API_version}}

In the description of the {{API_version}} property, the date shown for the release (12/07) is incorrect. The date should be 2/08, as shown next.

h5. {{Global_zone}}

The following information describes the effect that the new {{Global_zone_override}} resource property has on the {{Global_zone}} resource-type property:

A resource type that declares {{Global_zone=TRUE}} might also declare the {{Global_zone_override}} resource property. In that case, the value of the {{Global_zone_override}} property supersedes the value of the {{Global_zone}} property for that resource.

h2. {anchor:CJACKKKD} Resolved Issues

This section discusses Change Requests or documentation errors or omissions that were resolved after the Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 release.

h3. InfiniBand Host Channel Adapter (HCA) Support (6599044)&nbsp;

The Sun SPARC Enterprise T5120 and T5220 servers that use Sun Cluster 3.2 2/08 software no longer require CORE Patch [126106|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/advsearch.do?collection=PATCH&type=collections&max=50&language=en&queryKey5=126106&toDocument=yes] (Solaris 10) or Patch [126107|http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/advsearch.do?collection=PATCH&type=collections&max=50&language=en&queryKey5=126107&toDocument=yes] (Solaris 10_x86) for InfiniBand configurations.

h3. {anchor:89736} Private Network Interfaces Using the {{nxge}} Driver Can Cause a Solaris OS Panic&nbsp; (6525548 and 6726165)

*Problem Summary:* Private network interfaces that use the [{{nxge}}(7D)|http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-5177/nxge-7d?a=view]driver can cause a panic in the&nbsp;Solaris OS (6525548 and 6726165). A cluster node might panic if the network adapter meets the following criteria:
# Your private network adapter uses the {{nxge}} driver.
# A change in network adapter state follows a change in cluster configuration.

A stack trace of the panic might look like this stack trace (6525548):

{info:title=Note}You can also use the {{modinfo}} or the {{ifconfig}} command to determine if the {{nxge}} driver is used on a node. For example, you can type {{modinfo&nbsp;-c&nbsp;\|&nbsp;grep&nbsp;nxge}}

.
{info}Examples of a change in adapter state that follows a change in cluster configuration are:
* The cluster switches over and the private adapter fails.
* The private adapter is disabled.

*Solution:* For SPARC, apply Patch 138048-03 or later to resolve both the Solaris OS panic and the Sun Cluster software issue. For x86, apply Patch 138049-03 or later.

*Workaround:*&nbsp; You can perform the following workaround until you apply the appropriate patch:
# On each node that uses an {{nxge}} private adapter, add the following entry to the {{/etc/system}} file.
{panel}
{{set nxge:nxge_rx_threshold_hi=0}}
{panel}
# Reboot.

h3. {anchor:89737} Required Minimum Solaris Kernel Patch for UltraSPARC T2 and UltraSPARC T2 Plus Servers

*Problem Summary:* The Sun Cluster software requires Solaris kernel Patch 137111-01 or later to avoid&nbsp; a node panic on all UltraSPARC T2 and UltraSPARC T2 Plus-based servers. Without this patch, a panic can occur when a node in the cluster attempts to mount a Global File System (pxfs).

A stack trace of the panic is similar to the following: &nbsp;
